Meanwhile, in small communities all over the globe, pipeline employees are working on the gaslines, insulating the water lines, and mapping all the infrastructure. Just ask around. I don't know how long it will take them to complete, but the guys I asked said corporate said they have to work on ALL the natural gas lines and eyeball both water and sewer. Any waterlines that aren't insulated must be immediately tagged for "roadwork".

This is in midwest USA. Anyone else?
